“They’re heeeeeeere”

Poltergeist is Steven Spielberg’s and Tobe Hooper’s vision of a suburban ghost story. That is what made the movie terrifying for me. The horrors occur in the home of the Freeling family- Diane and Steve, the loving parents and their three kids, Carol Anne, Dana and Robbie. Carol Anne speaks to a TV one night. The spooky occurrences are harmless at first until Carol Anne is whisked off to the Otherworld. Then the ghosts have no intention of releasing her from their spectral clutches. 

The Freeling family turns to a parapsychologist for help to get their daughter back. They meet an exorcist who senses the powerful evil hovering over their home. Steve’s real estate boss has a chat with Steve one afternoon. Steve may have helped it happen when Carol Anne was kidnapped.  He finds out his home and the other homes in the neighborhood are built right over dead bodies. They never moved the bodies, only the headstones. This has disastrous consequences on the Freeling family. Coffins push through the floorboards; corpses pop up in the swimming pool and meat crawls down the kitchen counter. Their home becomes a harrowing house of horrors, but they never give up on rescuing Carol Anne. The special effects are amazing- who can ever forget that tree that was about to carry Robbie off to an ominous tornado or the diabolical clown? Poltergeist has a chilling element of believability that will haunt you long after the movie is over. 

I highly recommend Poltergeist for a classic haunted house horror movie. I never watched the remake because it will never surpass the original. 

I love that movie. I look forward to writing more movie reviews and such for Blood Reign Lit. 

Blessings, Spiderwitch
